Jabil Inc (NYSE:JBL) eked up on the release of second-quarter financial results.
Net revenue was $6.1 billion U.S. GAAP operating income: $90.6 million. U.S. GAAP diluted loss per share: $(0.02)
According to CEO Mark Mondello, "After a stronger than expected start to the fiscal quarter, our factories were adversely impacted by workforce and supply chain disruptions associated with COVID-19, First and foremost, the safety and well-being of our people is our number one priority.
"Despite the near-term financial setback, our long-term strategy remains unchanged."
The Florida-based JBL also said its FY20 full-year guidance, issued just before Christmas, did not anticipate the impact of a global pandemic. As a result, given the rapidly changing situation, it is withdrawing its FY20 full year guidance until we are able to update and quantify the underlying business assumptions.
